Seems like it's becoming a trend that I update this sucker once every 12 or so months...  Since my last journal I've bought a house and become almost entirely engrossed in home improvement/maintenance, cooking, and a whole assload of martial arts training.  Even my good ol' Xbox is feeling the neglect.  But all the same it's a new chapter in my life and things are going swimmingly, made easier with the help of a lovely girlfriend (though her not-so-subtle hints for an engagement ring weigh on the soul).

Haven't really drawn anything since before Christmas, but with the return of Avatar to my life, and in spectacular fashion no less (go watch the first two eps of Korra, NOW!) I can't help but feel like my muse has been re-awakened.  Already I'm plagued by ideas for pro-benders... the MMA-influenced styles are just too awesome for me to not squeal over.  

So, if anyone out there still cares a lick whether I exist, hopefully I can pump out some pics in the near future.  Hell, if I feel particularly artsy I might open up the floor for some requests.  Maybe I'll put together an OC Pro-bending team from the first 3 posted characters, if that's something anyone would be interested in...?

Ah well.  Let's see where this goes.
Good to be back, DA!
